Chapter 610 - 263: He Might Be an Immortal! (Part 3)

Now this is no longer domestic, the murderous intent has surfaced.

The driver was scared to death, slammed on the brakes, threw open the car door, and ran towards the forest.

That direction happens to be where one of the branches of the Wutai Sect is located.

One can’t blame him for abandoning the car foolishly; he was scared witless, after all, his companions had all silently hung on the bus.

But he hadn’t run far before he stumbled and fell, his neck pierced, blood bubbling and blocking his throat, unable to make a sound.

Suddenly, everything went quiet.

Inside the bus.

The bruised and battered men and women looked terrified, their voices filled with panic.

Only Cao Xin seemed calm, probing his head around, and in the next moment, he saw a shimmering golden flash as a figure appeared inside the bus.

It was none other than the old Daoist master from the Chen Family.

Chen Han entered the bus, surprised at the sight of the corpses of over a dozen bandits, with two balls of white light floating, items had exploded.

No wonder it’s a dungeon mission, such a drop rate does justice to the word dungeon.

Nonchalantly picking up the two items and putting them into storage, both turned out to be Basic Spirit Stones.

It seems this dungeon mission requires Basic Spirit Stone teleportation, and these items have a good drop rate.

Then, he turned his gaze to the terrified people inside the bus and said calmly: "Can anyone drive? Drive away from here and find a way to contact the people at the embassy."

After he had swept through two branches of the Wutai Sect, there would surely be many controlled captives, most of whom were likely deceived and brought here from domestic places.

Therefore, someone needed to handle the aftermath.

These people are not dangerous, so as long as they get in touch with the embassy, there should be no problem.

At least on the map, he hadn’t seen any danger markers at the embassy, and that was enough.

Cao Xin saw he was saved by this old Daoist master and immediately wanted to express his identity and get closer, but before he could speak, he saw a flash of golden light, and the figure had disappeared from the bus.

This scene left everyone in the bus wide-eyed and shocked.

Did they just meet an Immortal?

At that moment, someone finally recalled something and instinctively spoke: "He... he was the old Daoist master from the Chen Family... the video online earlier was actually real, and Linhe County even said it was effects..."

All of a sudden, they started chatting loudly; over half of them had seen related videos about Chen Family.

And that old Daoist earlier, like an Immortal, was from the Chen Family?

Cao Xin knew what was most important at the moment, quickly spoke: "I’m undercover police, now I need your cooperation, who can drive this bus?"

Only then did the others realize they hadn’t escaped danger, and a young man quickly stood up: "I... I can drive..."

He didn’t dare hesitate and immediately sat in the driver’s seat, started the vehicle, and drove away.

Cao Xin wasn’t idle either, quickly picking up two weapons, one on his back, one in his hand, and then grabbing a phone from the bandits, operated on it, and then took out a pre-cut phone card from his shoe.

Having been suppressed upon arrival, he hadn’t contacted Linhe County for half a day, they probably knew things had gone wrong here.

After all, it was agreed to contact every 6 hours.

This time he went undercover purely to investigate whether the county managed this case or not.

If not, he’d go back, since their real goal was to target participants or peripheral individuals in the Qingmin Region rather than confront this organization head-on.

After all, they had weapons, and they’re in a foreign land.

This couldn’t be done by such a small county.

But now the old Daoist master from the Chen Family appeared here.

The county would know this, how would they react?

...

Linhe County.

Huang Xin hurriedly drove back to the county and entered a conference room, where leaders were already seated along with Captain Li Rui of the Criminal Team and several team members.

The atmosphere was intense inside, very heavy.

Especially the leader who was making a phone call, in a hurry, clearly something big had happened.

Huang Xin quickly sat next to Li Rui and quietly asked: "Captain Li, what’s going on?"

Li Rui frowned, saying: "People sent there have lost connection, didn’t contact at the scheduled time, there might be trouble right after arriving, this suggests an insider leaked the information."

"Ah??" Huang Xin was instantly shocked.

He knew what this meant.

Since he and Patriarch Chen personally caught those people, he was involved in this case, and no matter what happens, he’d have contributed.

But he didn’t expect this kind of situation.

Doesn’t that mean everyone here is suspicious?

Li Rui seemed to know what he was thinking and then whispered: "It’s likely not from our side, but Yun City’s."

Responsible leader hung up, annoyed: "They said they didn’t know and would investigate, damn it, how could they not know? Li Rui, keep trying to contact Cao Xin!"

"Okay."

Li Rui nodded, knowing the situation was dire, he picked up a dedicated phone to dial, once connected, as long as it wasn’t Cao Xin, he was called Cao Xin’s debtor.

Before he could dial, his phone rang, it was the backup number given to Cao Xin.

He immediately answered and went on speaker, Cao Xin’s voice came through: "Leader, Captain Li, it’s Cao Xin."

This made the leader and Li Rui both delighted, immediately confirming with a code phrase, once verified, Li Rui asked: "Cao Xin, what’s the situation?"

Cao Xin quickly said: "Yun City’s side definitely had problems, I was suppressed immediately after coming out, only now am I able to contact you."

Upon hearing this, Li Rui quickly asked: "How did you escape?"

Cao Xin couldn’t help but say emotionally: "Captain Li, you’ll never guess who saved me, it was the old Daoist master from the Chen Family, without him, I’d have definitely ended up as a controlled captive."

"What?" Li Rui exclaimed directly: "That old Daoist master from the Chen Family went there?"

Huang Xin was shocked upon hearing this, stood up incredulously: "Before coming back to the county, I had just seen Patriarch Chen and wanted to ask if the old Daoist master went there, never thought he really did."

The responsible leader was also surprised, naturally aware of some of Chen Family’s situation, as he was responsible for reviewing records of people like Li Rui.

After the surprise, Li Rui said: "It seems unsurprising, earlier due to a believer getting kidnapped, that old Daoist master took down two gangs, this seems like a warning from the Chen Family."

"Who would’ve thought this organization would aim at Patriarch Chen knowing the patriarch represents the family’s facade, this is clearly a provocation, it’s no surprise to act."

"The key is how he got there, there seemed to be no movement, otherwise with that old Daoist’s appearance, regardless if by train or plane, he’d have attracted attention."

"Moreover, how did the old Daoist know their locations?"

This made everyone realize the complexity, truly extraordinary.

Cao Xin heard this via phone, quickly said: "Captain, leader, that old Daoist master from the Chen Family is definitely an Immortal, he appeared in golden light, vanished in golden light."

"And the bandits escorting me and other victims, over a dozen, all armed, were killed in an instant, not a sound made, same injury on each."

"I’ll send some photos to you."

Li Rui, Huang Xin, and others were stunned at his description, particularly the part about appearing and vanishing in golden light, if true, would certainly be Immortal methods.

Moments later, Li Rui received pictures, showing inside a bus, corpses and numerous automatic weapons, appearing heavily armed.

The key was their necks, each with a gruesome wound, blood still flowing.

Upon seeing the wounds and recalling Cao Xin’s description of them being simultaneously eliminated, Li Rui instinctively swallowed.

Everyone else also came forward to view the photos, shortly after, they all fell silent.

This truly wasn’t something humanly possible.

Compared to this, the old Daoist’s previous methods seemed very mild.

"I feel something major might happen over there." Li Rui subconsciously said.
